Well... his age thingy _says_ 23 (shrugs) ... either way though - if your just looking for a cheap way to start playing a little to see if you like it, you probably won't be as into it as if you invested a few bucks into some decent gear and took a little plunge. AFAIK, you can get the cheap'n'chessy springer pistols at dollar stores, though I've never personally gone to see this myself, and there are lower cost alternatives to the Tokyo Maruis coming on the market, but if your going to spend in the hundreds, I say get something thats proven to last. I would recommend getting a basic Tokyo Marui set-up from one of the online Canadian retailers listed in the menu above and a basic vest and some camo. Probably cost you a grand up front, but then the maintenance is very low after that, BB's are so cheap. I'm sure you'll have enough fun with that stuff to justify the price, even if you just end up plinking in your basement/uncles farm, though your encouraged to come out to local events to really get your money's worth.
There's lots of n00b resources on this page to help you get started, check them all out and search around, all the basics have been covered.
